NEW YORK, Janu,ry 3l.-Word
reached police headquarters at 3 o'clock
this morning that Raymond Belmont,
son of August Belmont, the well.known
banker, had shot himself. Young Bel
mont lived with his father at No. l09
Fifth avenue, and was associated with
the Belmont Banking house at IL Pine
street. In the evening Raymond went
out to dinner. He returned shortly be.
fore o'clock in the morning. With him
was Leonard Behr, night watchman,
with whom young Belmont was well
acquainted and who frequently accom-
panied him nome. They went TO the
basement, where there was shooting
gallery in which young Belmont. who
was very expert shot, frequently prac.
tised. AS they entered the room young
Belmont picked up a double-actng
Smith 4 Wesson revolver of 81 cali.
bre, aud turning to Behr said
"Now want you TO hold up gold
collar button and I will shoot ut it,"
Behr, who had frequently seen the young
man shoot and had great confidence in
him, at once agreed. Before taking up
his position, however young Belmont
turned to him and said, "Oh first close
all the doors, so that the report may
no. alarm father who is up stairs. ,
Thereupon Behr walked over to the
door and had just put his hand upon it
when he heard the report of the pistol.
Turning he saw young Belmont falling
to the floor, the blood gushing from
wound in the side of his head. "My
God, Raymond" ne cried, "what have
you done?" The young man raised his eyes
tried to speak but could not. Young
Belmont died soon after. The bullet
entered his brain. The coroner found
that the bullet had passed clear through
the skull. entering the right side of the
head and coming out at the left. The
watchman said the shooting was acci-
dental, bu! the coroner said all indica.
tions pointed to suicide. Mrs. Belmont
is in Washington. She was notified by
telegraph this morning.
EVIDENTLY SUICIDE.
Coroner Eidman said to-day that he
had no doubt that the shooting OF Bel
mont was due to an accidental discharge
of the revolver. He made some inquir-
les and acquainted himself with facts
sufficient, taken in consideration with
other circumstances, to feel assured that
the case was not one of suicide.
